When it has to do with improving ourselves, and this could be individually or collectively, it is imperative we take into consideration our Behavior and Habits. Because these concepts goes a long way to influencing our focus and determination in their advantage and disadvantages in any individual and indeed, in our collective psychology.

It must be observed that the aim of this write up, however, is simply to remind us of the impact of behavior and habit in our daily activity. This is to enable us to put them in constant check through awareness and reflections in other to overcome the hurdle of challenges we tends to face, although, not without other similar concepts of the like of attitude that often play out during interactions with others.

However, to be clear, it will be appropriate to define these two concept in order to identify them and know how they interact and impact our daily life as individual and as a society.

It must be observed that we are distinct and unique from one another, not only in physical aspect but also in our attitudes and behavior. We are told that our behavior is an inherent trait of an organism towards our environment and other organisms.

But come to be controlled by what biology refers to as "endocrine and nervous system", hence, the very complexity of our behavioural pattern come to be set by the complexity of the nervous system. These two concepts, of Behavior and Habit tends not to be taken seriously in our every day activities, and yet they often have a disorganizing effect both in the life of individual as well as that of the society at large. Often, in an act of generosity or of wickedness, these two concepts tends to be taken for granted, consciously or unconsciously.

But in reality, they remain a salient issues and being denigrated in our daily activity.
In psychology, a person is often come to be described through behaviors and habits, the individual may possessed. The reason is that, such behaviour and habit tends to tell the character and identity of the individual as well the overall attributes of that person.

Although, these two concept seems to be misuse as one and the same, but the reality is that they are different, when it comes to defining the character and identity of any individual at any given time.

Therefore, Behavior means the overall reaction or response to various stimuli and other internal or external input that may be volontery or not, at any give environment. And any such common behavior can be acceptable or unacceptable.

And we often come to judge behavior acceptability by social norms and by nature, we tends to abide by these norms. The same is true, that as a basic human action, our individual behavior tends to depend a great deal, upon the behavior of others, whether we are aware or not. Therefore, it must be observed that our behavior, apart from being a response to an environment or a situation, it also the overall reaction to the different actions in coordination with any given situation in any surroundings.

But this often happen, through the individual system or organism that may be volunteer or involuntary.
In their differences, Habit, is an act we repeat until it becomes automatic, which is often unnoticed due to its subconscious nature. While Behavior is the reaction of the system due to impulses around it.

The same is true that habit being the act manifested repeatedly and subconsciously becomes a routine at some point.Because it is an act we do over and over again, which in most cases, has its advantage and disadvantages.

But it does require to be checked due to its positive aspect of learning which is compulsory to enhancing our intellectual stride at any given time.
Another major difference is that while Habit is subconsciously repeated, even when not sometimes intended, it is often unconsciously done.

Behavior, on the other hand, is the reaction to any outside impulses, often, consciously done.The same is true, that behaviour becomes an output of any individual towards any given environment or situation, while habit becomes an input of any environment or situation and in particular, for certain individuals, through which emanate the the very saying of- "habit die hard".

Therefore, habits and behavior could lead any one to be complacent to the most obvious things due to the subconscious and unconscious nature in our life.
Often, certain individual are quick to dismiss these salient and yet basic concepts with a wave of hand.

This is true , in particular, in modern politics and economics and yet they remain a complex and stunning issues that required to be tackled through education. Because any adequate educational system has the potential to unravel certain historical problem through these concept in the society, although, these concepts often come to treated as a none issues.
